    Darkness Visible , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 461min
    When Darren Chivers, a small-time drug dealer, narrowly escapes a drug arrest, he begins to develop a different sort of criminal activity. Blackmail proves lucartive, but ultimately dangerous. When Chivers is murdered, Chief Superintendent Lambert, DS Hook and the rest of the team uncover a variety of suspects in the murky world where Chivers operated. As the dead man’s contacts are interviewed, it emerges that a verger in Gloucester cathedral, a senior telecoms executive, an upmarket clothes boutique owner, an ex-policeman, and even a vicar’s wife all had reasons to want the blackmailer out of their lives. Secrets tumble out as the investigation progresses. The solution to the puzzle is as startling as it is shocking. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jonathan Keeble.

    Things I Want to Punch in the Face , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 173min
    Jennifer Worick had a bad day. And then a bad week. She channeled her aggravation into creating the blog “Things I Want to Punch in the Face,” which became a sensation. Although her bad week passed, she has continued to take note of the little irritations that torment us all daily, from old guys with ponytails to 20-minute coffee prep, bizspeak to vanity plates, celebrity baby names to emoticons. Now, just in time for the holiday season, this book showcases more than 100 of Worick’s most punch-worthy aggravations, rated on a scale of 1 to 5 fists. She rants, she vents, she amuses with little factoids about the things that annoy the crap out of us. In short, she has created a hilarious gift book that has something for everyone to hate, from the last swig of beer, to mashups, to Ed Hardy clothing, to packing tape. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Das Echo, Hörbuch, Digital, 154min
    Eine Frau und die Schatten der Vergangenheit. Eines Morgens findet die erfolgreiche Architektin Amanda Powell in der Garage ihres exklusiven Anwesens die Leiche eines verhungerten Stadtstreichers. Offensichtlich hat der völlig verwahrloste Mann Selbstmord begangen, denn in Reichweite des Toten waren die Lebensmittel der Hausherrin gelagert. Tief verstört übernimmt Amanda die Bestattungskosten des Unbekannten - aus Pietätsgründen, wie sie später aussagen wird. Mit der Zeit scheint der unheimliche Zwischenfall in Vergessenheit zu geraten. Bis eines Tages Michael Deacon auftaucht, ein Journalist, der Recherchen für einen Artikel über Obdachlose betreibt. Fasziniert von der attraktiven Amanda und brennend interessiert an der mysteriösen Geschichte, stellt Deacon Nachforschungen über die Identität des Stadtstreichers an - und entdeckt, dass Amandas Schicksal auf tragische Weise mit dem des Toten verbunden sein könnte. Denn alle Anzeichen sprechen dafür, dass es sich dabei um den Finanzmakler James Streeter handelt, Amandas Ehemann, der vor vielen Jahren spurlos verschwunden ist. deutsch.

    Ordinary Resurrections: Children in the Years of Hope , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 567min
    Jonathan Kozol's books have become touchstones of the American conscience. Unlike his previous books, however, Ordinary Resurrections is almost entirely narrative and takes us into the fascinating details of daily life as he has lived it with young children who befriended him over the course of several years. Like Amazing Grace , this book describes the children of New York's South Bronx, but it is a markedly different book in mood and vantage point. Here, we see life through the eyes of the children, not, as Kozol puts it, from the perspective of a grown-up man encumbered by a Harvard education. Here, too, we meet some dedicated and inspired teachers in an underfunded but upbeat public elementary school, and we return once more to St. Ann's Church and meet the parents and religious figures in the children's lives. ungekürzt.
